i checked out a foreman 400 (not sure what year) and the guy wants $750 for it and said the rear end was out and it looked in alright condition the plastic was ruffed up a little but it started fine, does anyone know how much extra a rear end would run, and if new ones are real expensive, how do you go cheaper get it rebuilt or something? sorry for the questions but ive never had a 4x4- with a bad rear end that is.

thanks for info

Dont know how much your parts would be...

but on a side note, wouldnt it be cool if a manufacturer madea ring and pinion sets for ATV's like they do for trucks?

You know, so you could swap the gears out, like going from 4.10's to 4.88's and such.:confused:

I've always thought you could make a killing from doing something like that.:)

Which 450?

I think there is a company that is about to start marketing a kit for at least kawasaki 4x4's
